At around 1006pm on Jan. 14 2024 the DeKalb Volunteer Fire Department and Dekalb Police Department was dispatched to a residential fire on S. Runnels St. With a quick response the damage was minimal. The occupant stated that he heard his smoke detector alarm and upon investigation found smoke and fire in his attic that was extending into a unoccupied bed room. Please be sure to check your smoke detector batteries and make sure your device is operational. This smoke detector was supplied by the American Red Cross and installed in partnership with the fire department free of charge. This detector bought us extra time which greatly contributed to the damage being minimal and no occupants injured . Ideally each room should have a smoke detector. If you are in need of or interested in a smoke detector or have questions message us here or ask a Dept. member or contact the American Red Cross.

Here are the rules for the Predator Hunt

01/07/2024

ANNUAL PREDATOR HUNT ANNOUNCEMENT:

The annual predator hunt is an event geared to bring the community together for some friendly competition and fun.

After last year’s predator hunt there were a few accusations of foul play “cheating” towards some of the winning teams. These accusations were ignored in good faith from the hosts.

If the accusations and/or suspicions of foul play continue the hunt will be suspended indefinitely.

The members of the DeKalb Volunteer Fire Department volunteer their own time to host the annual predator hunt. Again, to bring the community together.
Please do not let your actions cost all other hunters. Thank you.
